College options

Tuesday night we went to visit our local technical college. Mark was interested in the carpentry program, and we found the visit helpful and informative.

In Minnesota, we have a post secondary option--where students can take college courses--tuition free--and receive high school and college credit for them. The trick with a vo-tech option is that most courses there are considered elective credit for high school, and we need to check to see if Mark has fulfilled all his basic required courses (he is finishing his junior year).

Spring fever has set in big time around here, and it's harder to focus on school and studies. That's why alternatives are nice. We are so fortunate to have so many educational options in our country--home school, private school, charter school, post secondary opportunities, and public schools.

Decisions, decisions. It is good to plan, but good to pray and trust as well. Right now seems to be a time for both.

Till next time,
